Abstract
A method and a device for obtaining a security key in a relay system are disclosed in the embodiment of the present invention. A node in the relay system obtains an initial key, according to the initial key, the node obtains a root key of an air interface protection key between the node and another node that is directly adjacent to the node, and according to the root key, the node obtains the air interface protection key between the node and said another node that is directly adjacent to the node. Therefore, according to the initial key, each lower-level node obtains a root key of an air interface protection key between each lower-level node, so that data of a UE on a Un interface link may be respectively protected, that is, each active UE has a set of security parameters on the Un interface link, and effective security protection is performed on data on each segment of an air interface.
